Town Hall
Rochester, NH - 07/22/08
TRANSCRIPT:
MCCAIN: "[...] And as you might recall, that Senator Obama, my opponent, said the surge would not succeed, that he wanted us out, if he had had his way we would have been out last March, we would have never done the surge, we would never have succeeded, and we would have had defeat. And my friends, that would have been a catastrophe for the United States of America. He was wrong then, he's wrong now, and he still fails to acknowledge, he still fails to acknowledge that the surge succeeded. Remarkable. Remarkable. And as you know he just received his first briefing ever from General Petraues. And he declared his policy towards Iraq before he left. Before he left. And so the fact is that we have made some progress and we have succeeded."
